Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      [Maybe this is not the appropriate thread for what follows; but, you asked the question.]
      How can anybody be intimidated by a mediocre person like you? Just curious, did it ever happened?

      The appropriate question would have been: "Why do you look down at intellectual midgets when they are too narrow minded, jerkish or stupidly pretentious?"

      By the way, I'm still waiting for you to "bring Math into it!!!" It will be a lot of fun at your expense.

      What makes you think that your educational background irritates me, why should it? Why would I care? I just think that your views are so simplistic and mediocre. All graduate students that I have met had much mature views and understanding of Computer Science than you do. For me, you are, at best, a not so bright hacker - and I don't use "hacker" to flatter.


      Is that the best explanation that you could come with?
      What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

        Well, the reason I ask is because the first part of your paragraph seems to contradict the second part of your paragraph. Yet I have never really made any claims to be any "good" at Computer Science much less at math. I certainly do enjoy the topics but why do you make it sound like I have made some sort of grand claims about myself in those fields?

        But in my defense, you trying to conclude about my knowledge of those fields based on what I post on "Armenian" (general topic) forums is a lot like trying to figure out what is going on in a soccer match by a picture of a basketball match

          By the way, before again trying to dismiss my comment as a "simplistic" view (of course you are free to do as you wish), try to understand the real essence of what I am saying. There is often more to my posts than the basic text. And I have a feeling that is what is really annoying you

            Wow! So you can't even tell the difference between a simplistic view - i.e. immature, confused, inarticulate - and an simple view/presentation- i.e. reduced to the essential, strict necessary???
            That's the kind of pretentious (intellectual) mediocrity that I had in mind in my previous post and that's exactly what you represent to me.

              Siamanto, I can only assume that your conclusions about my scientific abilities and technical knowledge comes from you having read one of my papers. Would you please tell me which one of the papers you dislike most? Maybe you have some constructive criticism or just ANY real criticism other than purely slandering me as a "hack". Well, ready to put your brain where your emotions are? I already know you dislike me as a person but can you really back up your other claims?

              Of course as a scientist, I am ALWAYS open to such criticism (if it is founded and well thought out). But if you are just going to continue to b!tch about me like a little girl, please save yourself the embarassment.

                How does it contradict? Probably, only in your head???

                Nice try! If you read your first post in this thread then you may - at least, someone with someone with minimal understanding - get answer. Becoming slightly more reasonable and less pretentious???

                  I should have taken my own advice in this thread. There is REALLY no use. But Siamanto, in case you have any interest to really read some of my papers before jumping to these amazing conclusions about me in fields which have never really been topics of discussion in these forums, I will be more than happy to send you some links.

                  Otherwise, I might be forced to rename Anahita Syndrom to something else

                    Can you be more explicit and share with us what "is more to it then what what some are saying?" Thanks.
                    2- That tiny island - it's the smallest country, I forgot the name - that is struggling with the advance of ocean. The country is "scheduled" to disappear in a couple of years
                    3- The many species of the North Pole losing their natural habitat
                    4- Those who suffered from Katrina
                    5-....
                    All is needed to become aware of it is to be informed.

                    Just curious, what "there is more to it then what some are saying?"






                    The fact that some dishonest and/or unscrupulous businessmen and/or politicians are exploiting the issue to their advantage does not change the fact that it's more than a "religious belief." Your criticism is true of any religion, political theory or...
                    By the way, how can it be "true science," what does that mean? As a person with a scientific background, thinking that it's a question of "true science" or not is a "religious belief" spread by the mass media - and the same kind of dishonest politicians.

                    P.S. By the way, just curious, what is "true science???"
                    In my opinion true science is testing, discovery, being honest with ones findings and not giving misinformation to gain a grant, win a contract or to obtain wealth through false information and justifying greed. I personally think we are going through an Earth cycle of changes that may be normal. Every year new information is found that changes the way we think.
                    I also think that we do not have enough information yet to come to a good decision.
                    I found some additional information that explains what I think. This was from information on Wikipedia.

                    As an example: someone who enters a new country and observes only white sheep might form the hypothesis that all sheep in that country are white. It can be considered a hypothesis, as it is falsifiable. Anyone could falsify the hypothesis by observing a single black sheep. Provided that the experimental uncertainties are small (for example, provided that one can fairly reliably distinguish the observed black sheep from (say) a goat), and provided that the experimenter has correctly interpreted the statement of the hypothesis (for example, does the meaning of "sheep" include rams?), finding a black sheep falsifies the "white sheep only" hypothesis. This sort of example provides the easiest way to understand the term "hypothesis".

                    Al Gore is a joke and as far as being the best America has to offer is a bigger joke.

                    Global warming is a fact to some scientist, not all. The subject is so complex that no one knows the truth. As far as it being a religion, people believe it is a fact. For every example that is negative there is another that is positive.
                    Is the Earths temperature going up or down, depends on who you ask.

                    We have had the earth is coming to the end from believers for hundreds, maybe thousands of years.

                    I have a lot of respect for you and your opinions, my intention is to respect you not argue with you.

                    Respectfully
